Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1232. The originator is James Campbell

What maddened James Campbell was that simply because Adam Jones had invested and claimed 15% of Campbell’s shares, he was able, as a shareholder, to come to the Campbell company and support Elly Campbell.

Sophie was already let down by Elly, and now James was being completely overpowered by Adam.

James recalled the words Adam had spoken under the Jones building, warning him in support of Elly, and he felt incredibly aggrieved. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Now, it had been so hard to finally have absolute say in the Campbell company, yet here was a minor shareholder with a mere 5% daring to point at his nose and curse him.

Did they really think James Campbell was so easily bullied?

"What the hell are you? It’s not your place to comment on what I do!" James fumed.

The shareholder, unabashed by being referred to as "old man" by James, replied indifferently:

"I’m nothing, but I earned my money through hard work. It’s precious to me, not for you to waste—you, who survives by leeching off women."

With that, he stood up, straightened his suit collar, and walked out of the conference room.

James was so furious his face turned green, but since it was a minor shareholder and he had no real power in the company, he couldn’t do anything about being insulted.

The only way was to use his larger shareholding to dilute the minority shareholder’s stake through capital investment.

But all the liquid funds he had were used up in purchasing the shares that used to be in Elly’s hands.

Now he had no money left to dilute the equity at Campbell.

If he brought in other capital to invest in Campbell, his own shares would be diluted as well.

Currently, holding a 55% share was the only reason the other Campbell shareholders had to follow his lead.

Once his shares were diluted, he would lose his leverage.

This would render the hefty price he paid to buy Elly’s 35% shareholding meaningless.

James felt increasingly suffocated the more he thought about it.

Looking at the other shareholders, who showed no signs of siding with him, he became resolute in not distributing any shares.

"CEO Campbell, the Campbell company is now completely reliant on you. All your capital has gone into the new building project, so if the funds can’t be recovered in the short term, all other projects will have to stop," said another shareholder in the conference room, without caring if James was angered.

Indeed, Campbell was in trouble, and the instigator was James Campbell.

This man had no competence; his only skill of creating trouble was on par with that of his mistress and illegitimate daughter.

The other shareholders nodded along, uninterested in further conversation with James, and one by one, started to leave the meeting room.

James’s face became increasingly unsightly, and seeing that no one paid him any attention, he sat down furiously at the conference table.

Truth be told, without the need for the others to point it out, he was well aware that if the funds were not recovered promptly, he would bear the biggest loss.

As the major shareholder of the company, if Campbell collapsed due to a broken funding chain, he would be left with absolutely nothing.

He sat in the conference room for a long time, reflecting on all the misfortunes he had recently encountered, and he increasingly felt that someone was deliberately making things difficult for him.

And the only ones who would want to target him, capable of causing so much trouble, were none other than the Jones couple.

The thought of his unfilial daughter pulling strings behind his back made James’s guts twist in anger.

But as soon as he remembered that Elly had Adam’s support, James lost his conviction.

He knew he couldn’t win against the Jones couple this time; if they didn’t back off, the Campbell company was truly doomed.
